This type of comment is pretty common, but never adds to the discussion. Some things are going to have similar names, and usually it just doesn’t matter.

Take Rust the game and Rust the programming language. How often do people confuse them? I’ve never seen it happen. Never mind the fact that rust is also a compound that forms when iron combines with oxygen.

In my book, it’s better to come up with a name that makes sense or is memorable as long as it’s not very confusing.

People confuse the game and the language all the time in Reddit. We even had a talk at RustConf a few years back about teaching an ML model how to distinguish them.

(That said I agree with your post generally...)
